ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE To analyze the factors associated with a lack of prenatal care in a large municipality in southern Brazil. METHODS In this case-control age-matched study, 716 women were evaluated; of these, 179 did not receive prenatal care and 537 received prenatal care (controls). These women were identified using the Sistema Nacional de Informação sobre Nascidos Vivos (Live Birth Information System) of Pelotas, RS, Southern Brazil, between 2009 and 2010. Multivariate analysis was performed using conditional logistic regression to estimate the odds ratios (OR). RESULTS In the final model, the variables associated with a lack of prenatal care were the level of education, particularly when it was lesser than four years [OR 4.46; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.92;10.36], being single (OR 3.61; 95%CI 1.85;7.04), and multiparity (OR 2.89; 95%CI 1.72;4.85). The prevalence of a lack of prenatal care among administrative regions varied between 0.7% and 3.9%. CONCLUSIONS The risk factors identified must be considered when planning actions for the inclusion of women in prenatal care by both the central management and healthcare teams. These indicated the municipal areas with greater deficits in prenatal care. The reorganization of the actions to identify women with risk factors in the community can be considered to be a starting point of this process. In addition, the integration of the activities of local programs that target the mother and child is essential to constantly identify pregnant women without prenatal care. .
RESUMO
OBJETIVO Analisar os fatores associados à ausência de realização de pré-natal em município de grande porte. MÉTODOS Estudo caso-controle, pareado por idade, com 716 mulheres, das quais 179 não realizaram o pré-natal e 537 o realizaram (controles), identificadas por meio do Sistema Nacional de Informação sobre Nascidos Vivos, do município de Pelotas, RS, entre 2009 e 2010. Realizou-se análise múltipla por regressão logística condicional para estimar as odds ratios (OR). RESULTADOS No modelo final, as variáveis que mostraram associação com a não realização de pré-natal foram ter menor escolaridade, especialmente menos de quatro anos de estudo (OR 4,46; IC95% 1,92;10,36), ser solteira (OR 3,61; IC95% 1,85;7,04) e ser multípara (OR 2,89; IC95% 1,72;4,85). A prevalência de não realização de pré-natal por região administrativa variou de 3,9% a 0,7%. CONCLUSÕES Os fatores de risco encontrados devem ser considerados no planejamento de ações para a inclusão das mulheres no pré-natal, tanto pela gestão central quanto pelas equipes de saúde, e indicaram as regiões do município com maiores déficits na captação de pré-natal. A reorganização das ações para identificar as mulheres com esses fatores de risco na comunidade pode ser considerada o ponto inicial desse processo. É necessário ainda integrar as atividades entre programas locais que atuam sobre o grupo materno-infantil para a busca constante das gestantes sem atendimento. .
